A Complete Examination of Middlesex, Bruce Gilden

In 2011, New York-based street photographer Bruce Gilden was commissioned by the Archive of Modern Conflict to capture the people and places of London. Kalev Erickson, who accompanied Gilden in his daily forays to photograph passers-by on the streets and wrote about the highs and lows of their various encounters in Issue 1 of Amc2 Journal, has now drawn on the photographs made by Gilden for the London project to produce this book.

‘I’m known for taking pictures very close, and the older I get, the closer I get.’
– Bruce Gilden

The Archive of Modern Conflict is an organisation dedicated to the collection and preservation of vernacular photographs, objects, artefacts, curiosities, and ephemera. Founded in 1991, the archive began as a collection of photographs relating to war and conflict but has since expanded its remit to become the vast and thematically diverse repository it is today.
